Remote Desktop and Desktop Shortcuts
-
This has always gotten me too. A huge pain about RDP
-
If you need the screen resolution set the same as the local computer, assuming both monitors can handle the same resolution, use the manual settings in RDP.
-
That works if you have have the real estate to spare and know what the other monitor has ahead of time.
-
Just make sure that, when you make that change, you save the RDP file after and put it on the desktop.

It's an option though. As long as the destination display is equal to or less than the viewing display, he's fine. It's not perfect but it's an option.

If they can pin the shortcuts to their taskbar instead of desktop, it won't be an issue anymore.

If you only saw the way people use shortcuts here...it will make your head hurt...me?? I am one of just a few on Windows 8.1 and I have mine categorized on my start screen...I actually make use of the "controversial" "Modern" screen...

We actually have a policy that IT does not help people with shortcuts. If you really need a short cut it's between you and your manager, otherwise we deploy needed internet favorites via GPO, and the rest of the applications are in the start menu(start screen).

Standard network drives, yes - user directories, not so much.
